IDP 651411 Replacement Thermal Print Head for SMART-51 Printers

The IDP 651411 is the replacement thermal print head for IDP SMART-51S, SMART-51D and SMART-51L direct-to-card printers. A worn or damaged head shows up as fine lines, voids or streaks across every card; when cleaning doesn't clear them, replace the head.

IDP designed the SMART-51 for easy print head replacement. You can replace it yourself following the printer's user manual. After fitting the new head, enter its serial number, resistance value and head type (KEE or KPE, printed on the head's label) in IDP's printer configuration utility so the printer calibrates to it. The SMART-51L's laminator uses a separate laminate head (651393).
